It would make me a happy human if there were lockers in the bunkrooms so my shit didn't keep getting stolen!

Seriously, though. Lockers? Can we? Is it even possible?

“Then he called him Maeglin, which is Sharp Glance, for he perceived that the eyes of his son were more piercing than his own, and his thought could read the secrets of hearts beyond the mist of words.”

If staff didn't want private rooms (and I can see why they might not), renting out lockable chests for a pittance still seems like an idea worth considering. (And what a great place for a lock-picker to explore! )

To be fair - thieves exist. So long as it's RPed out properly I don't see the problem with this. Though eventually, pick-locks WILL exist, and we should reward them with a juicy locked containable filled with our goodies.

Errr. Not omoting locks? Omoting whatever you'd normally omote to indicate that your items haven't been randomly discarded on the floor, then "locking" your omote with the exclamation mark, so that it doesn't get disturbed by (OOC) accident, only intentionally.

You are not even doing yourself that much of a favor.Flush pheasant is a poor way to branch. (in my experience, at least)Were you catching this bird, the fact that there are a million of them everywhere will actually make the process more difficult, since you have to dia 2.phe or dia 4.phe, who becomes 2.phe who becomes 5.phe...

What you're doing is wrecking the wilderness for people who sneak around and subjecting others to spam. Even if it's the holy grail of branching, people are going to get pissed off and your favorite (clearly) craft nerfed.

Look, OMOTING and expecting players to appreciate the OMOTE isn't going to happen. Players aren't very fair more often than not. Also, just assuming lockable containers without access to an actual locksmith is cheap and cheating.

Get a locksmith, NPC or PC, get some locks. Do it legit.

This is the new and improved Jme, this is the legit Jme.

And as the sig suggests:

HAVE A JMETASTIC DAY

Except that wasn't what anyone was suggesting. If you end an omote with an ! at the end of it, you have to type get <item> ! to take it or omote on it. That cuts down on things being taken by players who didn't actually intend to take them. That's what EltanimRas was suggesting.

Yep. Because even if the first person goes "Oops!" and drops the item straight off, they've broken your omote, which, if they don't reset it for you, means your item now looks carelessly abandoned, rather than neatly stowed.

Nobody's suggesting that virtual locks would be kosher, any more than virtual fireballs. ... Well, maybe a bit more than virtual fireballs.
